Tanks 101 Course

NISTM CO-LOCATED EVENT:
Orlando, FL | April 29-30, 2015
NISTM offering this unique aboveground storage tank
course taught by industry authority Philip Myers of PEMY
Consulting.
This comprehensive course is aimed at engineers,
inspectors, regulators, administrators, and managers
responsible for storage tank facilities who wish to improve
their overall knowledge and understanding of these
facilities in the petroleum, chemical, aviation and paper
and pulp industries. More importantly, this course offers an
excellent opportunity to network with others in the same
situation and ask questions and consult with experts. The
course is divided into two major parts.
Covers the fundamentals for the design, construction, operation, maintenance, and
inspection of terminal and tank facilities. This segment will focus on an overview of
aboveground petroleum storage tanks, the different kinds of designs, and the general
considerations associated with storage tanks such as fire safety. It will cover how the tank
designs and components affect operability as well as operating risk. The morning segment will
focus on the contents of API 650 and API 620 and explain how to specify tanks. We will also
cover how and why various tank options and designs are used in the context of different
requirements and situations.
Having built a good tank the next problem is to ensure it remains safe and leak free. The focus
of this segment is on the tank inspection. The rules of API 653 will be covered and the contents
of API 653, and API 575 will be explained in detail. Some topics are how suitability for service is
determined, brittle fracture, evaluation of fixed roofs, floating roofs, foundations, when and
how to use of release prevention barriers, principles of hydrostatic tests, materials of
construction, and many other issues associated with existing tanks.
